Dealing With Seasonal Allergies-5 Tips That Work

Seasonal allergies that are triggered by airborne pollutants are easier to deal with if you follow some simple coping strategies. Here are 5 that will help you get through your allergy season with a smile.Shut Out Allergens----Pollens are the number one culprit for those who suffer seasonally. Make sure that you keep home doors and windows closed. Choose to use air conditioning rather than a whole house fan to cool. Keep the windows in your car rolled up, and choose to re-circulate the air rather than using the vent that would bring in unfiltered air.If possible, park in a garage (great motivation to clean it out) where you and your car can escape the thick coat of pollen during the peak of the season. Parking in the garage will also allow you to avoid the outdoor air which is likely to have way more pollen the garage.Choose Outdoors Time Wisely---Pollen levels tend to be highest (unfortunately) on beautiful, sunny, dry, and windy days. They are lowest after a good rain because the rain literally clears the air.The lowest levels are generally early in the morning and late in the evening. Late morning through afternoon hours are peak times for airborne allergens.Wear A Mask---If you must go out when you know levels are high, wear a mask to limit your exposure. Yes, it may look a little funny, but better to take err on the safe side and feel good the rest of the day. Masks are relatively inexpensive and can be obtained at a well-stocked hardware store.Wash Them Away---Pollen is light weight and sticks easily to anything. As a result, hair clothes, skin, and packages are all fair game. Get in the habit of taking off outdoor clothes and putting them in the washer immediately, if not to wash immediately, to keep the irritants contained.Shower or bathe to remove pollen from skin and hair. Use eye drops to keep down irritation, inflammation, and itchiness.Control Allergens Indoors---Regardless of how hard you try, pollen will get indoors. Opening and closing doors as you come and go allows it to blow in, and pets, packages that are delivered and left at the door are just a few of the thousands of ways it invades indoor air.Sing an air filter that is specifically designed to remove seasonal allergens such as pollen and mold and mildew spores is an effective, low maintenance and non-invasive way to keep the level of airborne allergens to minimum.High efficiency particle arresting (or HEPA) filtration has been proven to be best for removing airborne particulates such as these. By definition it must be able to remove 99,997 out of 10,000 particles that are.3 microns or greater in size. Since these are all greater than .3 microns, they are easily removed.So whether it's tree pollen in the fall, grass pollen in the summer, or ragweed and other weed pollen in the fall, these 5 tips will help you cope all during the year.
